Alex feels her body meld to his, hand in his hair, one around his waist - perfect. He's warm and strong, so good to her. She'd almost said it over the phone, but held back, wanting to say it face-to-face and now she's not sure she wants to let him go long enough to say anything.
The need for air overrides the need to kiss him and she draws back a fraction of an inch. Her eyes fall closed and the words wander out on tiptoe, soft as can be; she's almost not sure she's said them at all until she hears herself - "I love you."
She's doesn't know when it happened or when she knew, and she's has no idea why she hadn't said it before, but she's sure she wants to say it now.
